Symptoms

Issue / Errors----------When Item Amount on the Receivables > Online Items > Group Entry page is entered equal to "1" or less than "1", the accounting entries of the Group always has an unidentified Rounding Account Entry.This results in a Sub-System Journal that is out of balance because there are two debits created (User and Rounding) for the same amount and one credit (AR Control).

Environment----------Issue happened in FMS Release 9, Bundle 10 Demo

Expected Result----------Rounding Account Entry should not be created in the scenarios where the Item Amount is equal or less than '1'. In this scenario, there is also no currency transaction involved. If system doesn't create any rounding account entries for amounts with more than '1' Base Currency, it should behave the same for the amounts equal or less than '1' Base Currency meaning that the accounting entries of the Group must NOT have any Rounding Account Entry.

What is Working----------As long as the item amount is more than '1' Base Currency, system creates the correct accounting entries without any Rounding Account Entry.

Business Impact----------This results in a Sub-System Journal that is out of balance because there are two debits created (User and Rounding) for the same amount and one credit (AR Control). It has to be manually adjusted.
